About mitochondrial disease.
Mitochondrial diseases occur when mitochondria, the powerhouses of your cells, fail to produce enough energy for the body to function properly.

Mitochondrial disease can affect all parts of the body. Especially those that require a substantial amount of energy to function. 1
